A Visit to Leuven with Yo and Caroline

1 Comment

You may have seen these two famous actors in this short film they produced. Turns out they live in Leuven. Stop one of the big 3C birthday extravaganza was centered at their house.

We spent a fair amount of time wandering around town.

Leuven has its share of students (and they returned to class just after we got into town).

It rained. Like crazy. We walked 13.5km anywway.

The crocuses in full swing and filled with bees.

They are concerned about another Eve in Leuven.

We also had some excellent meals with our hosts.

The bees also think it is hot. We wonder whether you could build a bee thermometer to estimate temperature by watching and counting fanning bees.

I decided I could take one frame from one of the 2 hives this year since there is plenty more for the bees for the winter (read ~50lbs/hive!). Since it was only one (but still 5-6 pounds of honey!) I scraped it into cheese cloth, squeezed, twisted, and finally hung it off the faucet in the kitchen sink to ooze out, and gave it one more squeeze with spatulas to get the last bit sans wax.
